Bad website and they charge double

Firstly. No one replies to your messages. This is not necessarily their fault as it is a competitive market. But they do promise a quick and easy solution. Secondly the app is bugged, the messaging board is not user friendly at all. And the cancelation doesnt work. Be ready to pay double of what they ask of you. Because if you cancel at the end of the month they will just charge you again even if you cancel on time.

Hi Burek,

Thank you for sharing your experience — we’re sorry to hear it didn’t meet your expectations.

You're right that the housing market is competitive, and while we do our best to provide a quick and easy platform, response rates depend on individual landlords, many of whom receive a high volume of messages and can’t always reply to everyone.

We also appreciate your feedback on the app and messaging board. We're continuously working to improve usability, so your input helps us prioritize fixes.

Regarding your cancellation: Kamernet subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled before the renewal date. If you cancelled on time but were still charged, please contact our support team at support@kamernet.nl — we’ll be happy to look into it and assist you further.

Thanks again for your feedback.

Hi York,

Thank you for your feedback — we understand how frustrating it can be not to receive replies. Many landlords receive a large number of reactions and unfortunately can’t respond to everyone, even if they’d like to.

Kamernet is an open platform, so response rates can vary. To improve your chances, we suggest applying early, personalizing your messages, and making sure your profile is complete.

If you'd like help with your account or tips to increase responses, feel free to reach out at support@kamernet.nl.

From fair service to expensive careless customer service in 2 years

Been living in the Netherlands (Groningen) for almost 3 years and Kamernet helped me connecting with my second landlord in 2023. Unfortunately 2 years later, the subscription price for just the weekly option has raised outstandingly and the published housing options on the platform show a lot of preference for Dutchies. Good luck if you're an international student at your first year. Cherry on top of a delusional Kamernet cake? Even if your email inbox is full of emails about housing providers/platforms subscriptions you've done to find an accomodation, and you inadvertently miss or forget Kamernet's reminder of your onerous subscription renewal, they will not cafe and not refund you - here's how a company loses a potential user by showing zero compassion or understanding.

Dear Marco,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with Kamernet.

We’re happy to hear that Kamernet was helpful in connecting you with housing during your time in Groningen. However, we’re sorry to learn that your recent experience has been disappointing.

Regarding our subscription pricing, we understand that affordability is important, especially for students. Our goal is to maintain a balance between offering a wide range of listings and providing a platform that remains sustainable and secure for all users. We constantly review our pricing and services based on user feedback like yours.

We also recognize the challenges international students can face in the Dutch housing market. While Kamernet does not determine landlords' preferences, we are committed to being as inclusive as possible by encouraging all users to keep their listings open and accessible.

As for subscription renewals, reminders are sent via email before the renewal date, and users are free to cancel at any time. That said, we understand that things can slip through, and we genuinely appreciate your feedback — we’ll take this into account as we continue improving the user experience.

We regret that this situation has led to your disappointment, and we hope there may be an opportunity to welcome you back in the future under better circumstances.

We’re sorry to hear that you didn’t receive responses from landlords. While we provide the platform to connect tenants and advertisers and we encourage all users to be active and respond in a timely manner, unfortunately we cannot influence who responds or when.

Wishing you the best of luck in finding your next home!

Good experience

Good experience! Messaging app is a little annoying as does not save messages as most recent and you have to change settings every time. Also would be good if you could include photo of yourself in the original message.

Feedback of 2 Month of Using Experience

Some technical issues:
a: Upload photos failure in conversation for website users which effect conversation with landlord
b: Several minutes delay in text message delivery after sending a message (especially for different time zone); potential opportunities might be missed out
c: The email notification not being spontaneous when the landlord replies my renting request, some messages will be missed out.
d: Some of landlords just flag of convenience; false advertising; put good pictures in Karmernet, but totally different place and house situation in real life viewing.
e: Rude & ridiculous & picky landlords in Amsterdam.

TIPS: MORE LANDLORDS REGULATIONS NEED TO BE ESTABLISHED to ensure fairness.

Hi Yanjia,

Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed experience after using Kamernet for two months. We are sorry to hear about the technical issues you encountered and the frustrations with some landlords. This is certainly not the smooth experience we want our users to have.

We are always working to improve our platform, and your feedback is very helpful in highlighting where we can do better. We understand that delays in messages or notifications can cause missed opportunities, and that inaccurate or misleading listings can be very discouraging. Reports like yours allow us to take the necessary steps to address these concerns and continue improving both the technical side of the platform and the reliability of the listings we host.

Thank you again for sharing your thoughts and helping us make Kamernet better for all users. We hope your future housing experience is a much smoother one.

Being able to contact the owner of an advert doesn't guarantee you will receive an answer and get your desired accommodation.

In this scammer-filled atmosphere, Kamernet offers a secure opportunity by verifying the people we communicate with, so I would like to thank the team. As criticism of inspections, the landlords and real estate agents should keep the details of the properties updated and specify property types clearly, such as furnished/unfurnished or shared rooms, studios, etc. This would save time and allow us to use filters more effectively. Also, I wish some landlords would at least have the decency to review tenants' messages and respond if negative. Most importantly, it is quite annoying that a new internet tab opens every time you visit a different ad, and seeing so many Kamernet tabs makes it confusing to remember where you left off.

Dear Dilara,

Thank you for your thoughtful review and for recognizing Kamernet as a secure platform in a challenging housing landscape. We truly appreciate your kind words about our verification process and your trust in our team.

Your suggestions regarding listing accuracy and usability are also very valuable. We always encourage advertisers to keep their property details up to date, including furnishing status and property type, to ensure a smoother experience for everyone. We'll share your feedback with our product team, including the point about tab navigation, as we continue working on usability improvements.

Lastly, while landlords are responsible for their own responses, we understand how discouraging it can be not to hear back. We’ll continue encouraging better communication and responsiveness from advertisers.

Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience and insights.

horrible for those on a tighter budget looking for anything more than a brief sublet.

Kamernet is truly horrible for students or people on a tighter budget looking for anything more than a 2 month sublet. New listening aren’t put up often and when they are, they are typically €2000+ and for such a brief period of time. The customer service is equally horrible. Make sure you cancel your subscription multiple days before renewal because despite me cancelling the day before my renewal date I had to pay for another month since they have a strict policy of having to cancel minimum 24 hours before renewal.

Hi Lily,

We're truly sorry to hear about your disappointing experience with Kamernet.

We understand how important it is, especially for students or those on a tighter budget, to find affordable and longer-term housing options. While we strive to offer a wide range of listings, availability can fluctuate based on demand and the market, and we're continuously working to attract more landlords with suitable listings to better serve our users’ needs.

We're also sorry to hear about the frustration you experienced with your subscription cancellation. Our policy does require cancellations to be made at least 24 hours before the renewal date, and we recognize this can be unclear or inconvenient. We're actively reviewing how we communicate subscription terms to ensure they’re as transparent and user-friendly as possible.

Regards,
Jacques

Don't waste your money

I feel like Kamernet doesn't remove ads of properties that already found a tenant. I paid for an account and responded to around 10 places I was interested in at the time, the next day 4 of them were automatically removed because "the landlord already found a tenant", all in one day. I responded to so many ads and only one responded.

More so I don't think ads that have not found a person but are old are shown to me as "new"??? Today I log in to respond to "new" ads and a room for a period of "1 May to 1 of June 2025" is shown to me as new ad. It's 22nd of July 2025. Scam , there is probably like 15 actual ads that take responses.

Dear,

Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear it hasn’t met your expectations. We understand how frustrating it can be to respond to multiple listings and not hear back, or to see ads that seem outdated or unavailable.

Our team actively works with landlords to keep listings up to date, but unfortunately, not all property owners update or remove their ads promptly after finding a tenant. We’re continuously improving our system to detect and clean up expired or inactive ads more efficiently.

If you believe certain listings are misleading or wrongly marked as “new,” please don’t hesitate to report them, this really helps us keep the platform accurate and fair for everyone.

We truly value your feedback and hope we can improve your experience moving forward. Feel free to reach out to our support team so we can assist you further.

Dear Sidas,

Thank you for your feedback. We understand your frustration and truly value your perspective. While some listings on Kamernet may specify Dutch-speaking preferences, often due to shared living arrangements, we agree that inclusivity is important.
